Hi

have meanwhile measured exactly how much ° the removal of the pens brings?

Thx Ben
Just checked my alignment printouts, and JO3L is correct. My original front camber was -5. After pin removal, -7.

Do you mean -0.5 ° to -0.7 °? sorry in Germany it is important to know the sign;)

so the difference is only 0.2 ° ?

Thx Ben

If you have a DC strut bar, it will not fit after removing the pin and adding the negative camber.

I already had a DC strut bar on and was setting my car up for the track. To easily get some negative camber, I had the pins removed. Now the strut bar will not fit, now that the bolts are closer together. I could grind the hole of the strut bar to fit, maybe around 1/4" to 1/2" inward, and I may do that.
Same exact story for me, but luckily my Sirimoto strut bar still fit since it mounts to 2 spots instead of all 3.
